Hi

Very nice, and awesome soundtrack to boot.

I looked and one tried to say it was a nice mundane 4 door car to my Mrs but she didn't believe and so I ended up with the X5 instead.

Good luck with your search for another E53

Thanks buddy, it's in the body shop at the minute having a full detail and paint correction. Yeah it's alot of fun with 350bhp......My last Impreza was 440bhp and that was big fun :)

depends what you want from it, if your looking for a mega fast street car then no go for the sti. if your looking for an impreza which you can have a little fun with then yeah go for it but be warned..........the standard 2.5 engine is absolute dog shit. from 2006 to present day it is plagued with issues, head haskets going/piston ringlands failing being the main 2 issues.

when forged the 2.5 engine is a gem and perfect for fast road use but if not forged then have at least £4k set aside to have it rebuilt. get it mapped by a reputable specialist and use 99 ron fuel only.

this thread says 2008-2010 but if you read it all you will see it contains all 2.5 engines
